5.0 out of 5 stars A great book with the right stuff., August 25, 2006

By	Henry C. Byerly - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've read Corky Bell's "Maximum Boost" and this new book by Warner is far superior. Where Bell includes a lot of personal opinion and unsubstantiated information, Warner sticks completely to the facts. Better yet, Warner's book is much more up-to-date, with current information on components, EFI, and tuning. It's a model of clear and precise writing. Anyone seriously interested in turbocharger systems should get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Now enlightened, July 9, 2006

By	S. Mcgill (Saint David, AZ United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First and foremost, this is a book normal people can understand. I wish I had this book before I completed my first project. I have read it twice already, and I have friends waiting to borrow it. I suggested they buy their own copy.
I also like the section on the fuel injection, and have been wanting to get into it and out of carburators. I have read other books about turbocarging, and by far, no other books have come close to having the amount of information and research that is in this book. I hope there will be more. Thanks again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, could use some more proofreading, July 8, 2006

By	J. Gover (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Book is a good compilation of information. Excellent book to get up to speed on turbocharging basics as well as some advanced topics. Numerous errors / typos in the equations and formulas may confuse beginners. Overall, another good book to add to the turbo-heads knowledge bank.
